I got this recipe from my neighbor. I sampled it at her house, and it was wonderful and easy to make!

Line cookie sheet with foil to the rim.

Cover with saltine crackers.

Boil 3 minutes: 1 cup white sugar and two sticks butter

Spoon over crackers.

Bake at 400 degrees for 5-8 minutes or until golden.

Remove from oven and pour 12 oz chocolate chips over the top.

Let melt. Spread over the crackers.

Refrigerate.
